Bonjour à tous!
I'm coming up on the last week of the transfer. What. I can't believe it! Next Monday, I'll have the news if I'm staying or not! So if you send the package before that you could just send it to the mission home :)
This week we saw SO many miracles!! We have 5 amies!! We started this transfer with ZERO. And now we have five!! Heavenly Father really is answering our prayers and there are absolutely people who are being prepared to accept this gospel!
On Wednesday we were contacting and everyone had rejected us. We were on our way home and we saw a woman with her three kids, I turned to Soeur Denning and I was like maybe she'll be nice to us! So we went up and talked her. She was totally interested in meeting with us. Her kids are so adorable and we gave her some brochures and our number. She has so much faith and she prays with her kids everyday. On Thursday night we went by and taught them. It was so wonderful! She has been so prepared, her questions are soo good! Her little girl told us how she knows God loves her and He listens to her pray every night. I love them so much! We are going to do an FHE with them this week! We FOUND A FAMILY!!!!!!!!! I am so beyond thrilled!!!! I can't wait to go back again! She is so incredible and I adore her kids. Her husband is in Africa right now for work but hopefully he'll be back soon to take the lessons with the rest of his family. I am so excited Heavenly Father led us to this family so that can have the same happiness and peace that I have!
Then Friday night we were waiting with the Bishop for a less-active family we were going to meet with. They never showed up so we headed to pass by some old amies, on our way we saw an old lady walking her dog, usually I'm a bit apprehensive about contacting old ladies (they can never understand my American accent and they are usually really mean to us) but I was like we need to talk to her!! So we stopped her and talked about eternal families and true happiness and she was so soo sweet and we invited her to come see the church and she was all for it! So we went back, she met the Bishop and then we introduced the Book of Mormon and taught her to pray! The Spirit was so strong and she has so much light, I love her so much! We walked her home and invited her to church! She accidentally slept in though and didn't come but we stopped by afterwards and taught her the retab. It went really well and we fixed another rdv! It was so great and the Spirit is always so strong with her! I know she has been prepared to accept our message!
When I saw Lenaig at Church she was like Soeur Hawkes I love your mom so much! She is super super nice and so wonderful! It is so cool that you were able to talk together! How fun!! I'm glad my French is getting better! It's definitely not where I want it to be but it's definitely WAY better than it was before so I'm grateful :)
So this week was wonderful. Full of great adventures and miracles and answered prayers! Thanks for your letters and the fun Valentine! It was so great! Thanks you so much for all your support and prayers! I love you all so much!
